Machine gun turrets are another option. These are used for close-range attacks on people and small vehicles. Upgrading the Crossbow to a 30mm chain gun allows it to launch attacks from a greater distance.
The 23mm cannon was a compromise on load, and the Mi-24 platform had more spare capacity, so it could directly use a larger caliber cannon.
The ammunition storage area in the nose of the aircraft, which holds 12.7x108mm ammunition, needs to be recessed to install an electro-optical turret, and the machine gun also needs to be modified to have an external ammunition supply link.
In today's world where appearance is everything, if the Cross Deer doesn't change its design, it'll have to add an extra piece of equipment, like the Super Doe.
It's not that it's ugly, but it looks genuinely evil, which doesn't quite fit with the style of the concentrated fire defense team that upholds justice and safeguards order.
By incorporating the electro-optical turret into the nose of the aircraft and moving the cannon and ammunition storage area back as a whole, it looks much better.
If you ask why we can't make a dragonfly-head radar, my hometown says there's no such project there. But would you like another type of mast-top millimeter-wave radar?
Of course he wanted it. No one could refuse a Longbow Crossbow. Its millimeter-wave radar could track hundreds of targets at once and lock onto the most threatening one for a guided strike.
Last year, a certain Type 21 anti-tank missile exhibited had an astonishing range of 18 kilometers, which, when used in conjunction with other technologies, could take down a tank from 10,000 meters away.
Portable air defense systems can't stop it, and field air defense systems like the Tor can't reach it either. This is exactly what Xia Yu wants.
Compared to these, the Apache helicopter is outdated, and the Hellfire is a thing of the past.
If it's urban warfare, Xia Yu will definitely need to equip himself with two more Weasel 1A8 tanks.
The combination of deer, tigers, and antelopes is sufficient for now, but it might get a bit chaotic when there are multiple targets to attack.
The next four phases of the project aim to involve naval warfare, requiring even more and more specialized personnel.
Since there were no ground armored forces for this operation, we naturally had to bring more personnel: an instructor team, two data teams, and two squads of village protection teams. The Super Hornets weren't enough, so we had to use Chinooks.
This is a good thing, as it can create more jobs.
There was no other way when starting a business, but now that some people have money, they need to become more formalized and build a dedicated support team to protect these important company assets.
Xia Yu can guarantee that the equipment is fine, but many accidents are caused by human error, which is something he must strictly avoid.
To achieve this level of efficiency, a staff of 1,000+ is only sufficient.
Those T-55s would be opened by RPGs immediately; they don't have much of an advantage over armed groups of similar size.
Leonardo DiCaprio, who had devoured half a bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs, pointed to the barbecue grill on the TV and said...
The other party was also having dinner, but it was their last supper, so they could eat and drink their fill before they went on their way.
Lyman was also temporarily reassigned from the Mole crew; he will drive the Gazelle as an air strike unit, undertaking auxiliary output tasks.
Bosses shouldn't spend all their time thinking about how to lay off people or reduce costs and increase efficiency; instead, they should strive to make the pie bigger and hire more people.
The most crucial point here is that employees of the parent company and subsidiaries can be seconded to each other.
But this time the target was just a village with fewer than 300 people, not a tough nut to crack like an extremist group. The people he sent were enough to take it down.
Of course, it's a different story if someone is willing to use the mine as collateral for their debt.
If fighter jets have to have their fire control systems removed and their weapon firing capabilities eliminated, then what kind of fighter jets are they? They're just noisier, faster, and shorter vehicles.
After a night's rest, it was evening of the second day.
He did this clearly to make better profits and to better serve wealthy tourists who have money to burn.
There are already several hundred now, and with the three phases of the project officially underway, it's certain to exceed a thousand.
Xia Yu was very suspicious that one day Chung Fei might outsource all of the president's security, since the president's guard, which only numbered around a thousand, might not necessarily be able to defeat the People's Revival Front in a one-on-one fight.
Perhaps it was Ernest's $1 million that made a difference, as the food at this armed outpost was significantly better than before.
Jihuo Defense provides full-service support to drive these troublesome opposition armed groups back to the rainforest and grasslands.
The helicopter landed on the helipad in the corner of the mine, and the maintenance crew came to take over.
Firepower Defense has few full-time employees, but the War Museum has many!
In this low-intensity operation, no one in the company was injured, or rather, there should not have been any casualties.
Inside the restaurant tent, everyone ate dinner while watching a live broadcast of howling eagles on television.
It may not be ready for delivery and operation until next year at the earliest, placing it after those two red Fighting Falcons.
Xia Yu's workload was greatly reduced because he didn't have to personally maintain the equipment.
The only downside is the slow delivery cycle. Just before this deployment ended, he loaded a 90% new Mi-24V onto the ship and sent it back.
Whether it flies in the sky or runs on the ground, every shot you fire here is live ammunition. You are closer to real combat than the armies of most countries in the world.
Slow and steady wins the race; take your time.
The Mi-24Vs on the tarmac were once again fully loaded with ammunition. The CH-47Ds, which had never participated in combat operations since joining the concentrated fire defense and only carried out routine transport, were also ready to go.
"Guinea pig, their roast chicken looks delicious."
Tanks and fighter jets can be bought, but just like you can buy an underbarrel grenade launcher but not grenades, the shells fired by tanks are blanks filled with black powder particles, producing smoke but causing no damage.
Xia Yu, who was looking forward to Longbow Cross Deer joining the company, turned back to Old Deer Tiger and withdrew to the uranium mine first.
Just like in the old days, because guns aren't banned, the threshold for gun-playing might be too high, so it's not fun anymore. Only fully automatic guns still have some appeal.
It has a bit of a San Dezi Flying Club vibe, but Xia Yu says he feels wronged.
The armed groups are not as fanatical as extremist groups, nor are they as well-trained as rebels; the current stalemate is due to the government forces' weak combat capabilities.
"I wanted to eat roast chicken, but the way he roasted it made it too dry. What a waste of such a good chicken."
But the situation is different at the Afica War Museum.
Old Wu shook his head and said.
Afica's livestock industry is very backward, but the more backward it is, the more natural it becomes. It's like how people in China miss the free-range pigs and chickens of yesteryear, but those growth cycles have been eliminated by industrialized farming, making them a luxury food that only wealthy families can afford.
They're everywhere here, and the prices aren't too expensive unless you're earning local currency.
"It's quite a waste. Call the howling eagle and pull the camera angle to the northeast."
After Xia Yu finished speaking, he contacted the ground control station in Busa. The image on the television quickly shifted to the northeast and was magnified.
Dozens of free-range chickens were crammed into a semi-open livestock shed.
"During the first reconnaissance, there were only a few chickens in this shed. Now there are so many more. They were all bought by that convoy after they arrived at the stronghold."
"If you want to eat roast chicken, the ones you buy yourself definitely won't taste as good as the ones you've captured. Bring all these chickens back with you."
He addressed everyone.
A chicken costs less than $5; you could buy hundreds of them by firing one less missile. But life is about finding some fun!
"Yes, boss!"
The enthusiasm of the crowd was instantly aroused.
With so many free-range chickens and guinea pigs, the meat can still be cooked tender and juicy. Let's have a roast chicken party!
Each of these millionaires, worth millions, put in their best effort to win the game, donning their gear and checking everything before boarding the CH-47D transport cabin to wait.
Compared to their experience, the members of the two combat squads of the village protection team were more apprehensive.
In the past, they were responsible for cleaning up the battlefield after a battle; this kind of surprise attack and blockade is unprecedented.
Two shifts, one in front and one behind, blocked the two entrances and exits to the village, ensuring that no vehicle or person could escape.
With armored vehicle convoys, these two points don't need to be guarded; without them, they become very important.
Each squad was equipped with an MG3 rifle, and all riflemen were equipped with monocular night vision devices and laser sights. As for rocket launchers, they carried as many as they could.
Aside from guns and AKs, the village protection team members who followed the company's main force were better equipped than the special forces in Kenniya.
The strength of the main players is too great, and only today have they had the opportunity to compete in real matches.
It's time to put it to the test and see what it's really made of.
Led by the squad leader, the 16 men boarded the Chinook's transport compartment, while Andrei closed the tail hatch from the front cockpit.
"Splash splash"
As night fell, three helicopters took off in succession, forming a formation and flying rapidly toward Zha'de territory.
"I want to avenge my dad."
A child soldier, or rather a second-generation warlord, was shouting, holding a pistol in one hand and a roasted pistol leg in the other.
This man was Ernest's son, Ernest Jr. He already knew of his father's death, and an escaped officer had contacted his confidant.
“My little chief, the chief told me to tell you that if anything happens to him, do not seek revenge for him. Once this storm has passed, take the rest of the people back to the tribe.”
“These PMC companies are all paid to do things. The government army can't employ them for long. As long as the other side withdraws, our People's Front for the Restoration can make a comeback.”
Ernest's understanding of the situation is quite insightful. Without the tracking by the reconnaissance and strike drones, Jihuo Defense would not have known that this armed group was trying to escape before the fighting even began.
That would have given them a chance to make a comeback, but now the situation is different. Xia Yu is determined to eliminate them completely and wipe out the entire convoy that escaped.
"This company deserves to die. It's a dog of the government army. The territory of the People's Front for the Restoration was taken by my Papa and his men, shot by shot."
Young Ernest channeled his grief and anger into his appetite, eating and cursing at the same time.
Look how hypocritical he is. Normal commercial employment means being treated like a dog, and this land of Afica is like the territory of a lion.
If the old lion king can't hold on, a new lion king will take over. It's all about the survival of the fittest, and no one says that winning a battle guarantees the throne will be passed down through generations.
Moreover, the first thing the new lion king has to do upon taking the throne is to kill those little lion kings.
Compared to the Lion King, the Firefighting faction is more like civilized people with firearms, taking some broken stones from the old Lion King's territory as payment to help him eliminate this troublesome bad boy alliance.
"Splash splash"
The Chinook helicopter stopped 5 kilometers from the target village, and two fully armed village protection squads disembarked from the helicopter.
Guided by night vision goggles and howling eagles, they set off in armed off-road vehicles towards the designated location.
The lack of a tail rotor is a weakness of twin main rotors, but it also introduces the drawback of high noise levels. This is why the old man, who was looking for a studded engine, did not use the CH-47.
Special operations in densely populated areas require attention to this issue, while in sparsely populated areas, simply disembarking at a greater distance is sufficient.
These burly Black men, fed with large sums of money, carry an average of 25 kilograms of combat gear and can march 5 kilometers in a desert region in just half an hour.
If there's still space in the transport compartment, instead of two cat carts, give two donkeys; the speed could be even faster.
Unfortunately, they're gone, which is why Xia Yu needs to recruit helicopter pilots again.
For missions where there isn't enough time to deploy armored vehicle convoys, two transport helicopters are needed.
The Chinooks were used for loading, while the Super Hornets were used to transport people; none of these vehicles were superfluous for the company.
Under the cover of night in the desert, a group of young men, nearing twenty and at the peak of their physical fitness, huffed and puffed as they made their way along. The frontline main force on three helicopters of Jihuo Defense was taking their final rest before the battle.
"Calling the boss, shift 2, get ready."
"...Class 3, take your positions."
As Xia Yu watched the real-time coordinates of the two combat squads on the tactical tablet arrive at their designated positions, he also received calls from the two squad leaders.
"Stay put and wait for the main force to enter the game!"
"Yes, boss!"
"Splash splash"
The propellers kicked up dust, and the old deer, tiger, antelope, and Chinook rose from the ground, charging towards the target village 5 kilometers away.
The noise, which grew louder and louder, woke up the light-sleeping militants, and the sentries on night watch even woke up their leader.
As a country that exports peacekeeping forces, Zha'de has many small armed groups, but it does not have a stable militia like Chungfi or Mari. Locals are more sensitive to the movement of helicopters.
Once the three-aircraft formation arrives in the combat airspace, no amount of sensitivity will help.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh"
"Boom boom boom"
The first salvo of 16 rockets hit the parking lot in the southwest corner of the village, and the explosions that detonated the pickup trucks signaled the start of concentrated fire defense.
"beep"
"Knock knock knock"
Seeing the soft targets scattering in the thermal imaging, Xia Yu's machine gun and Lyman's cannon opened fire simultaneously.
Under intense fire suppression, Andrei maneuvered his CH-47D down to treetop height, with several ropes being thrown down from the open hatch.
In just a few dozen seconds, all 21 combat employees completed their rappelling and, under the cover of night, made their way to various directions of the village.
Compared to the instructors and Team 2 who frequently engage in airborne operations, this is Team 3, who has only recently joined the company, trying special operations for the first time after leaving the infantry fighting vehicle.
The two who came from the airborne mechanized units adapted quickly. The other two, who were veterans with special operations backgrounds, were alright, but the remaining two had only received assault training.
Without muscle memory, the movements may not be as fluid, but with the guidance of the instructors, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Bang bang"
Gunshots rang out continuously.
They cleared people out of the house room by room, applying two thin layers of clay to the tree branches. The mud walls of the houses could be kicked down with a single kick. Hand grenades were definitely out of the question, but it was a pitch-black night!
Only a few mud houses with generators had their lights on; they could enter the rest of the houses at will.
